Abstract
Various impact-sliding wear behaviors commonly occur among steam generator tubes and their supporters. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of ultrasonic surface rolling process (USRP) on the impact-sliding wear behavior of Inconel 690 alloy tubes. A self-made two-dimensional cycling impact-sliding wear test rig was developed to realize multiple wear patterns by changing motion parameters in both impact and sliding directions. Tests were carried out under different impact and sliding velocities. Results indicated that USRP reduced the impact kinetic energy absorption rate, friction coefficient and increased the wear resistance of Inconel 690 alloy. These can be attributed to the USRP which decreased the grain size of 690 alloy, resulting in the increase of micro-hardness and compressive residual stress.
